Classes and Resources for EMS

We’re dedicated to educating both the community and healthcare professionals on trauma care.

The Trauma Center at Theda Clark offers a wide range of professional education resources that provide the most current concepts and techniques for delivery of care to the trauma patient.

Annual Trauma Symposium

The Trauma Center at ThedaCare Regional Medical Center-Neenah is recognized as a leader in trauma care. As one of ten American College of Surgeons (ACS) nationally verified Level II trauma centers in the state of Wisconsin, the trauma center at ThedaCare Regional Medical Center-Neenah is dedicated to providing comprehensive, multidisciplinary care for adult and pediatric patients. As such, we recognize the need and responsibility to educate the medical community and increase awareness in new developments in trauma care.

The Trauma Symposium - Updates in Trauma Care is designed to update physicians, nurses, EMS personnel, and other interested health personnel on current procedures, accurate assessments, and appropriate management of patients with trauma related injuries from the pre hospital arena, to the emergency department, intensive care unit and beyond. Our challenge is to provide optimum care to the injured victim and their families in a changing environment. ThedaCare Trauma Center-Neenah is proud to offer this one-day conference featuring trauma care from many different, yet specific traumatic injuries. Local and guest faculties will be featured during this one-day program.

Our in-house professional development series is designed to enhance trauma outcomes, provide interactive educational experiences and encourage the use of critical thinking skills. Each module is independent and does not need to be taken sequentially. Limited space is available for EMS personnel.

ThedaCare Trauma Center-Neenah, in collaboration with ThedaStar, provides free educational outreach offerings designed for your staff. Lectures can be specific or general. Speakers include specialty physicians and nurses. Some of the wide variety of topics available include:
